their veggie burgers are no bueno but they have meatless chicken patties that are reminiscent of cafeteria food in the good way. expensive for what they are, but very tasty.

splurge within your budget. end of the month rolls around and my wife and i still have $40+ in our date budget? we’re getting appetizers and drinks at dinner. extra grocery money means we’re getting name-brand ice cream. you’re right that there’s a sensible to still enjoy the money you’ve earned.

lectures are great ideas, i didn’t realize audible offered them.

yooo this is good stuff! not a single parent, but many of these have been coming up in mine and my wife’s parenting as well. we have a close group of friends we trust and letting them offer instructions to my almost 4-year-old is amazing. i get the sense it helps inform her that there’s a ‘right’ and ‘wrong’, not just…

Overdrive (through the Libby app) because it is infinitely freer than anything else while maintaining excellent quality. stephen fry reading hitchiker’s guide to the galaxy? heck yeah.

thanks for your reply sue. i cannot imagine the heartache you must have/must continue to go through. doubtlessly you know what’s better for yourself than some anonymous stranger on the internet like me. i guess my point more had to do with using the word ‘toxic’, since i am under the impression it is misused…

michelle, i am so thankful you wrote this post. i hope no one ever needs it.

using a capital one quicksilver card. we pay it off once a week and keep the rewards sitting there until december and the voila, we have a christmas budget without any extra effort.

i’d really commend Grammarly and StayFocusd. Grammarly is fantastic is you do a lot of writing and don’t want to come off like a n00b to really judgy coworkers/internet trolls. stay focusd has been huge for me. i do well with the pomodoro method, so allowing myself to have healthy distractions of no more than 30…

my wife and i share accounts. our checking, savings, credit card, and loan accounts are all hooked up to mint. i pay off the credit card once a week, and spend several minutes every few days on mint to organize purchases into their proper categories. it doesn’t take more than a few minutes since i try to do it pretty…

my struggle as well. i’m a video producer at a non-profit. resume writing has been a huge challenge for me since my role is about content creation and performing particular tasks

this is a fair point. work security is something i didn’t even consider when writing my reply, i think this is absolutely fair and reasonable.

first, your handle cracked me up. great job.

i’m an open book. i trust her with everything. heck i even leave reddit logged in on her laptop. i get some of the ones below where it’s a genuine security info, but i can think of tons of times where she might need to get in my email, phone, etc. i just don’t see the merit in locking the most precious person to me…

i’m genuinely interested to see the excuses people come up with for this. it seems unfathomable to not share everything with my wife, passwords and all the information they protect included.

we loved consumer when we were with them. $40 for two lines was a sweet deal when you’re looking for lowest bottom-line price. Tracfone ended up beating them with a $25/60 day plan. my wife and i staggered our sign-up month, so our phone bill was $25/month for two people. but CC customer service and ease of use blew…

my wife and i did it. we kept her phone with us since we were traveling to a party and wanted the GPS just in case. not having access to spotify made me learn that we have no CD players in our house, so spring cleaning was pretty dull. also learned my moto x4 has some pretty serious battery drain issues. granted, i…

coming from a conservative Christian, wild at heart is garbage

i’d love some more pieces on how to use my phone to enhance my work productivity or personal life. i’ve made use of a cloud-based to-do list, collaborators, reminders and calendars, but i’m sure there could be much more.
